How to use this podcast

Hi. I’m Henrik, and this podcast is here to help you fall asleep.

I talk about almost anything here. Small observations. Big thoughts. Memories. Side tracks. Jokes. Things that don’t lead anywhere. Sometimes it’s calm. Sometimes it’s strange. Sometimes it’s engaging, even entertaining, and sometimes... well sometimes it's just ... meh. All of that belongs here.

You can listen while falling asleep, but you can also just listen. If you get curious, involved, amused, or pulled along by a thought, that’s fine. If you get bored or just feel indifferent about the whole thing, that's also fine. It's part of the method.

My view on sleep is simple: fighting wakefulness usually makes it stronger. Letting things be as they are often softens them.

You don’t have to try to sleep. You don’t have to try to follow either. Let your attention do whatever it wants. Drift in and out. Stay awake. Fall asleep. Wake up again.

I don’t use a script. I speak freely, and I let the episode become whatever it becomes. The words matter sometimes. The rhythm matters other times. Nothing needs to resolve.

Use new episodes or the same one every night. Stop halfway. Skip around. There’s no correct way to listen.

Things are allowed to be what they are.

That includes you.

Sleep tight.

/Henrik

She has green shutters she once painted during a summer that didn’t try to be anything special. And a house that knows her. Or thinks it does. We move slowly through rooms, thr...

Rain on the Car Roof

Sleepy… tonight I’m sitting with the strange feeling that I might still be me. I checked earlier. The mirror confirmed it. Henrik is still Henrik, at least for now. This episode begins just after a live recording of the podcast. A small basement room in Stockholm filled with mattresses, tea, candy, ...

A Small Peace in a Stone Room

Sleepy. Tonight begins, as it often does, with nothing in particular. A welcome to new listeners. A quiet confession that this whole thing might be “content striving to be non-content.” And then, slowly, the mind wanders. We drift through questions about what really matters. A conversation with Nina...
